What I was trying to say in this video was that the sellers should be focusing on incentives for the buyers....not the Realtors. Give the bonus to my clients. I'm already being compensated, but i know my clients are looking for the lowest price and best deal, so give it to them. While i don't know if I would call Realtor bonuses wrong (as the seller is offering the bonus and obviously trying to get creative with their sale), i don't ever want to have a client second guess anything in the buying process when I disclose I am being paid a bonus. That would really really bother me.
Roy hit the nail on the head when he said "The idea here is that the buyer agent is getting paid more and would be more inclined to push their listing over others." Although I'm aware of the reality and it's existence, I just don't like this "idea".
Good comments.
